About Me

I live in Western Australia, near the water, in the city. I like to wander about. I love my family and friends. I read when I can, write when I can, take photos and hope for the best.

"When, however, I look over the hints and memorandums I have taken down ... my heart almost fails me at finding how my idle humor has led me aside ..."

Via Graeme Watson's Blog I learnt about My Heritage's Find the Celebrity in You! (TM). Upload a photo of yourself and the site's facial recognition technology will work out which of 2400 celebrities you most resemble. Note: Do not take quick snap of yourself in the bathroom and then hurry back to the computer to see how it works. Potentially, you could discover that you most resemble celebrities of the opposite sex - and that's just no fun at all. If, however, you use an old photo you don't like that's already stored on your computer, you could have better luck. If only I could use this technology to recognise the other Bloggers at Little Creatures.

At Gravyland I read about The Big Love Gift Guide. Yes, gifts that cost you next to nothing! Pickles get a mention, and free massages. It's enough to make me stress out. I'm mostly not good with pickles and massages. I'm mostly good for conversation and a laugh, which is a very sensible reason to choose friends who don't like gingham.
